Streetscapes

The intersection of utility, sustainability, beauty, and character.

Streetscapes are not only thoroughfares but public spaces that enliven our cities. They are the fabric that weaves our urban centers together - promoting strong economies and vibrant communities.

Clients rely on LaBella’s deep knowledge and full-service capability to deliver valuable solutions that meet their streetscape needs - improved mobility, enhanced safety, reduced carbon footprint, integrated recreation, creative wayfinding, enriched aesthetics, and greater access to the communities where we live and work.

LaBella’s team of urban planners, landscape architects, and engineers designs streetscapes that blend infrastructure needs with community planning and design.
Our approach to streetscapes integrates elements like traffic calming, green infrastructure, public amenities, and art to create a thoroughfare which is aesthetically pleasing and reflective of the community.
We collaborate with local officials, historians, artists, business owners, and residents to highlight each community’s unique heritage and needs.

LaBella has decades of successful streetscape experience from existing conditions evaluations, surveys, and right-of-way determinations to design, implementation and ribbon cutting.
To ensure our designs align with a community’s safety goals, we perform comprehensive street safety and accessibility audits and host public engagement events.
Our traffic engineers design streetscapes to meet ADA, PROWAG, and other regulations and standards.
A well-designed streetscape should be as easy to maintain as it is beautiful and should consider green infrastructure when possible.
Lighting influences streetscape safety and aesthetics, but it’s more than that. Our electrical engineers help account for lighting position, style, maintenance, and how easily structures are tied into existing utilities.
